I've never been a big Howard Stern fan but I think he's brought to AGT just what it needed, a great sense of humor plus kindness to the folks trying out. I loved last evening when he brought his Dad up onstage and he was a riot.

I will not watch the show because he is on it. I saw him once on late night tv and that was enough for me.

I agree! I tried watching his show a few times, found him to be extremely vulgar, and I will not watch him, no matter how much I've enjoyed AGT in the past. Sure, he's been made to clean up his act because he's on network TV during prime time, but that doesn't mean he's "new and improved".
